CTO at Northwood

Excited to share that I’ve cofounded a company – Northwood! Bridgit Mendler, Shaurya Luthra and I started by asking what satellite backhaul would look like if we built it from the ground up with today and tomorrow in mind. We approached the problem from first principles designing a system that is dynamic, scalable, and resilient. Off to a strong start with a killer team and the backing of the best. If you like building quickly and seeing your work deployed in locations around the globe with real impact, we want you at Northwood.

Exclusive – Bridgit Mendler is adding space CEO to her list of actress, singer, and songwriter. Introducing Northwood Space, which Mendler cofounded with Griffin Cleverly and Shaurya Luthra, aims to mass produce ground stations and is backed by Andreessen Horowitz, Founders Fund, and Also Capital. “The vision is a data highway between Earth and space" Mendler told CNBC. “For me, why the ground-side matters is because it actually is about bringing the impacts of space home to people."

Congratulations Griffin Cleverly! That's terrific news!!! Must be an exciting time at Northwood! No doubt Elon is looking over his shoulder and may be a little jealous of your flexibility in providing customers more control and choice over ground station services. Well done. (Nice piece by cnbc!)

Congrats to all the founders! I remember seeing Bridgit Mendler on Disney Channel growing up. Looks like all that luck she sent to Charlie came back to her 10-fold!
